Exploring Our Fluid Earth

I just completed teaching my 7th graders the Modes of Inquiry through the "Scenarios" activity introduced to us in Module 1. This activity was so perfectly suited for my students...they were very engaged throughout the activity, especially since the first scenario focused on their Curiosity. An assessment I used at the end of the activity was for each student to do a written reflection on 3 modes of inquiry they use when they are interacting with the ocean (going to the beach, fishing, surfing, etc.), and 3 modes of inquiry they used in a recent class activity. I am DEFINITELY doing this activity again with future classes!
